The crashing of the bus} __...,
The cracking of the crane,
The ringing of the anvil,
The grating of the drill,
The clattering cf the turning lathe,
The whirliug of the mill,
The whizzing of a spindle,
The rattling of the loom,
The pulling of the engine,
The fan', continuous boom,
The clipping of the tailor's shears,
The driving of the awl—
These sounds of honest industry,

The earnest talk of men,
The toiling ot the giant press,

As the ripened fruit comes down;
The busy sound of threshers,
That clean the ripened grain ;

The kind voice ot the drayman,
The shepherd's gentle call -

If we labor but aright,
That gives vigor to the day time
And eweetpr sleep at night;
A good that bringeth pleasure

For duty cheers the spirit,
As dew revives the flowers.
Then say not that Jehovah
Gave labor as a doom ;
No !— 'tis the richest mercy
From the cradle to the tomb.
Then let us ah be doing
Whate'er we find to do,
With a cheerful, hopeful spirit—
And free hand, strong and true.

Personal Intelligence,
The Washington correspondent of the Independent, gives the following vivid description of the
Little Giant" wdien under full headway :—
Senator Douglas is very short in stature, but of
such physical proportions, aside from this lack, as
nstautly to attract the attention of a stranger.
A very large head, connected with broad and
powerfully built shoulders, by a short, full neck ;
_ chest sufficiently roomy to contain the lungs of
a giant, and a pair of short', dumpy legs; complete
the physical picture of the ''Little Giant," if we
except the broad, lofty Y.'ebsterian brow, and the
deep set, cavernous eyes, that sparkle and glow,
when excited, like miners' lamps beneath it. It
is the tremendous brain power lodged iu that perpendicular precipice of a forehead, and shooting
out its fires from its shadowed eyes, that has given
him the sobriquet which he will carry to his
grave, When excited and in full flow of debate
that massive head rolls and shakes with the em-
phasia of his thought, and the huge hand doubles
until the nails Indent the palm, or else the broad,
open hand receives the blow of its mate and italicises the Sentence with a stunning report. The
sweat pours from him profusely, and falls (Vow his
head or is thrown clear of hia shoulders by thes
ical shakes of his head, as the rain drops are
shaken from the trees by a storm. Add to this
a thick, bushy head of black hair, and a restless*
uneasy feeling, which prevents his being at real
for five consecutive minutes, aud keeps him moving from one point to another in the Senate chamber, and my picture of the 'Little Giant" is complete.
It is stated, says the Cincinnati Commercial.
on that which seem to us reliable authority, that
Mrs. Senator Douglas takes a most lively interest
in her husband's political fortunes, aud that in
addition to iufinencing him to cut down his drink
ing and tobacco using to short allowance, and to
dree, in good taste, she has rendered him important service iu augmenting his pluck and strength
euing his back bone for the altitude of hostility
toward the administration iu which he ia now
placed. She is said to be exceedingly ambitions,
and to be a thorough social diplomatist, exercising
a considerable degree of taleut and force iu fur
ther.uglier husband's schemes, in the parlor of
the splendid new house over which she presides.
tentiou to every detail of house business. Th
dullest and prosiest declaimer can boast of an attentive listener in Orr, and it ia rather ominous
to a new comer in debate, when that flat-haired
South Carolinian, in a thread bare faded black
coat, leans forward, puts one hand lo his ear,
cocks his eye towards the new member, like aeon-
templative rooster looking for clear weather, and '
asks whether he rightly understood the last remark of the honorable gentleman, and if so, would
like to inquire, kc, &c. It is j,uite au ordeal to
go through.
Orr is a man of the world, of pleasant social
feelings, and thus is enabled to put through the
pa.tizan Work he assumes more effectually than
person of more austerity and ostentation."
The Lynchburg, Va., Courier in noticing' the
arrival of Gen. Sam Houston, says he is six feet
four inches high, large in proportion, and as
straight as an Indian. He has but little hair "on
the top of his head," aud what he has has been
silvered by the touch of time—as has also the
large moustache which dignifies bis upper lip.
He wears a vest made of some kind of animal',-
skin (wild cat apparently)—has his pantaloons
stuffed iu the legs of his boots, and altogether
presents quite a backwoods and dilapidated appearance—at least so far as his dress is concerned,
Hon. N. P. Banks, Governor elect, has resigned
llis office as Representative in Congress, and his
resignation has been transmitted to the Governor.
Probably Governor Gardner will immediately is.
sue his proclamation, ordering an election, and it
will occur about the 8th of January.
The Boston Transcript, ofthe 18th inst, says:
Colonel and Mrs. Fremont left Boston yesterday.
Tl ey have been in the city several days, visiting
onr public institutions and enjoying the hospitalities of their friends. They were welcome guests
everywhere.
The wife of Senator Benites, of San Antonio.
Texas, has recently given birth to her nineteenth
child. She is but 38 years old.
Gen. Mirabeau B. Lamar, whose nomination
has been confirmed by the Senate as Minister to
Central America, is a man of over sixty y^irs of
age, a resident of Tesas, for whose independenc
he fought, and was. two years ago, the presiding
officer of the Southern Commercial Convention at
New Orleans.
Ex-President Pierce having been named for
United States S "iiator for New Hampshire, ihe
Concord Patriot announces that he would not
accept the office even if he could receive the vote
of every member of ihe Legislature.
No Sabbath.
In a "Prize Essay on the Sabbath," written by a
journeyman printer, in Scotland, there occurs the
following passage:—
Yoke fellow I think how the abstraction of the
Sabbath would hopelessly enslave the working
classes with whom ye are identified. Think ol labor
going on in one monotonous aud continuous and
eternal cycle—limbs for ever on the rack, the fin go is
forever playing, the eyeballs forever straining, the
brow forever sweating, the feet forever plo-Uiing,
the brain forever throbbing, the shoulders forever
drooping, the loins forever aching, and the restless
mind forever scheming.
"Think of the beauty it would efface, ofthe mer-
ry-heartedness it would extinguish, of the giant
strength it would tame ; of the resources of nature
that it would exhaust, of the aspirations it would
crush; of the sickness it would breed; of the projects it would wreck; of the groans it would extort;
of the lives it would immolate; and the cheerless
graves it would prematurely dig! See them toiling
and moiling, sweating and fretting, grinding and
hewing, weaving and spinning, sowing and gather
ing, mowing and reaping, raxing and building, dig.
ging and planting, unloading aud storing, striving
and struggling—in the garden and in the field, in
the granary and in the mill, in the warehouse and
in the shop, on the mountains and in the ditch, on
the roadside and in the woods, in the city and in
the country, on the sea and on the shore, on the
earth, in the days of brightness ami gloom. What
a sad picture the world would present if wc had no
Sabbath."
The New York Evening Post gives the lollowing sketch of Col. Orr, the new Speaker of the
House oi Representatives :—
■Colonel Orr, who has just beer, elected Speaker
of the House of Representatives, like his able and
accomplished predecessor, Mr, Banks, started from
humble life, being the son ot South Corolina clock
peddler, He is somewhat unpopular with the file
eating exclusives of the South, as well from his
Union-saving principles as from what tbey con-
aider hia plebeian origin and association-. He
stands rather apart from the rest ot the South
Carolina delegation, and has exhibited a greater
inclination than they to ptess the claims ol that
State iu the distributed of federal patronage—
and he has certainly done something to commend
himself to a fair share of tbe spoils. Six thousand
dollars a year in Uncle Sam's gold—the Speaker's
salary—is not bad to take by anybody just now.
We doubt even if the "fusiest" families iu Virginia would reiuse ii, judging from tbe alacrity
with which their representatives have stepped into
ihe 1.B8 remunerative offices in the gift ot the
House,
The Dew Speaker has served already three terms
in the House, and has been diligently employing

High Time to Study Politics.— Bonaparte once,
at a party, placed himself directly before a beautiful and witty lady, and said very abruptly—
"Madam, I don't like that women should meddle
wiih politic.."
| ''You are very right, General," she replied, "but
he hol'ds. As chairman oi the committee relating in a country where women are beheaded, it ia natu-
to the subject, he signalized himsell by his report, [ ral that they should desire to know the reason."
Lucknow was safe. The divisions under Outf-
ram and Havelock were both in the Residency.
The enemy were said to be iu great force in the'
vicinity, and,Very strong in artillery. A convoy
of provisions had arrived safely at"Lucknow shortly after its relief, and reinforcements of 2000 men,-
t was supposed, would reach them Ircm Cawnpore
about the 2-ltb October. A column of MOO men,
under Geu. Greathend, was also ou its way tc
Lucknow, and was expected to arrive about tho
50th October, when the British force there would'
number 7000 men.
Greathead's column defeated a large body o^1
Delhi fugitives, with heavy loss-to-the latter, at-
Bdiundshtihur. on the 4th of October ;: on the
same day they also stormed and destroyed the'
fort of Malaghur, which the enemy had seized;:
and ou the 5th inst. they had another successful1
engagement with fugitives at Allygbur, iu which
400 of the enemy were cut up.
The column then proceeded to Agra and reached
that place ou the 14th of October, wheu it was attacked by a large body of mutineers, who were repulsed with, immense slaughter, the loss of all
their guns, 415 in number, five' lacs of bullion and'
a large amount of treasure. The number of mutineers killed is stated at 1,000, while the British
loss was small.
Colonel .Vilson had attacked and defeated the'
rebels at Bithoor, driving them out of a strong,
position.
The King of Delhi was to be tried by a military'
commission. Two more of his sons had been1
takeu and shot.
Reports were rife of threatening disturbances at
Hyderabad.
Nena Sahib was said to be near Bithoor again..
Maun Singh, heretofore a friend oi the British,
had turned against them since tbe storming of
Delhi was announced.
The fall of Delhi had- a marked effect in Mecrut-
and contiguous districts.
Arrears of revenue were beingbroughtinrapid--
ly, and loyalty was the order of the day in the"
northwestern provinces;
Part of a Bombay icginrent has mutinied at
Deesa.
A great depot of Europeans was to be formed at
Barrack pore.
Tlie Madras Presidency, Scinde, and tile Ni-
zaoj's dominions remained tranquil.
The Europeans at Saugor, above a thousand iu
number, were still in the fort, and calling urgent--
ly for relief. Fears were entertained for their'
safety.
Fart of the 32d Bengal Infantry had mntiniedf
at Deogliur, and two regiments of tbe Kotah Con-
ingent had also mutinied and murdered the political agent.
Eighteen men of the Bombay grenadiers were'
exeeuted at Ahmcdabad for plotting an insurrection.
STATE 01-" AFFAIRS tt Xt-fl CITY OF DELHI.
The city continues empty of all its former inhabitants, though many are attempting to nego-
iate with the prize agents for the ransom of their
houses and property. 11 is supposed a large
tmount of prize money will be collected. Nothing as yet is known as lo whether this place is ta
De retained as a garrison or not. The country is
about seltling down, and the people becoming
wonderfully civil.
CONDITION Olf LUCKNOW.
We must now turn to Lucknow. The position!
of tbe British cmnmander is singular. Between
the 20th aud 25th of September, General Have-*
lock had marched from Cawnpore to Lucknow"
with a force numbering less thau 2,800 men. The
lighting during the march was not considerable,
considering the number of the enemy and the
weakness of our force. The mutineer, however,
had thrown up works at u place called Allumbah,
three miles short ol Lucknow. These were mounU
ed with filly guns, and were taken after a stub-
born resistance by Gaperal Havelock, Finding
tbe place of sufficient strength, the General left a
party of the (i-lth in it, with the sick s.nd wounded,
and'himself pushed on to Lucknow, A plain,
traversed by a small canal, sepaiutes Lucknow
from Allumbagh, and as Havelock crossed the
bridge over the canal, it was broken down behind,
him by the enemy, who hung upon hjs r>-ar. Then
followed tlie attack on Lucknow. which was partially laken, with a loss on our side of about BiM
hundred killed and woundub The Residency was
relieved, and Gen. Havelock established himself
thore. The follows the strange party ofthe story*
The rebels have placed themselves tm the plain,
between the main body ol ihe British and the
party oi the (i4th, which holds Allntnhagh. The
whole extent of country between Cawnpore and
Allumbagh is clear, and a quantity of provisions,
convoyed by only two hundred and lifty men, has
got in with perfect safety ; but to Lucknow itself
it waa impossible to penetrate. The commander
must therefore mainlain himself as best he can until Colonel Greuthead makes his appearance, or
reinforcements are sent, up from Calcutta to enable him to act on the offensive.
BRITISH PLANS OF VENGEANCE.
At present public opinion is concentrated on the
question of vengeance. The following sentences,
from the Friend of India, arc understood to represent the universal idea;
1, That, in districts under martial law, and during actual wailare, the loss of life and property
should be regulated by military necessity alone,
'I. That every mutineer who has taken up arms
or quitted his ranks should die.
„. That every rebel who lias taken up arms
should die.
4. That in every village where an European has
been murdered, a telegraph cut, or a d.ik (stolen, a
.wilt tribunal shomd exercise summary justice.
5. That every village in which an European fugitive has been insulted or reiuaed aid should bf
i heavily fmed.

Personal Intelligence,
The Washington correspondent of the Independent, gives the following vivid description of the
Little Giant" wdien under full headway :—
Senator Douglas is very short in stature, but of
such physical proportions, aside from this lack, as
nstautly to attract the attention of a stranger.
A very large head, connected with broad and
powerfully built shoulders, by a short, full neck ;
_ chest sufficiently roomy to contain the lungs of
a giant, and a pair of short', dumpy legs; complete
the physical picture of the ''Little Giant," if we
except the broad, lofty Y.'ebsterian brow, and the
deep set, cavernous eyes, that sparkle and glow,
when excited, like miners' lamps beneath it. It
is the tremendous brain power lodged iu that perpendicular precipice of a forehead, and shooting
out its fires from its shadowed eyes, that has given
him the sobriquet which he will carry to his
grave, When excited and in full flow of debate
that massive head rolls and shakes with the em-
phasia of his thought, and the huge hand doubles
until the nails Indent the palm, or else the broad,
open hand receives the blow of its mate and italicises the Sentence with a stunning report. The
sweat pours from him profusely, and falls (Vow his
head or is thrown clear of hia shoulders by thes
ical shakes of his head, as the rain drops are
shaken from the trees by a storm. Add to this
a thick, bushy head of black hair, and a restless*
uneasy feeling, which prevents his being at real
for five consecutive minutes, aud keeps him moving from one point to another in the Senate chamber, and my picture of the 'Little Giant" is complete.
It is stated, says the Cincinnati Commercial.
on that which seem to us reliable authority, that
Mrs. Senator Douglas takes a most lively interest
in her husband's political fortunes, aud that in
addition to iufinencing him to cut down his drink
ing and tobacco using to short allowance, and to
dree, in good taste, she has rendered him important service iu augmenting his pluck and strength
euing his back bone for the altitude of hostility
toward the administration iu which he ia now
placed. She is said to be exceedingly ambitions,
and to be a thorough social diplomatist, exercising
a considerable degree of taleut and force iu fur
ther.uglier husband's schemes, in the parlor of
the splendid new house over which she presides.
tentiou to every detail of house business. Th
dullest and prosiest declaimer can boast of an attentive listener in Orr, and it ia rather ominous
to a new comer in debate, when that flat-haired
South Carolinian, in a thread bare faded black
coat, leans forward, puts one hand lo his ear,
cocks his eye towards the new member, like aeon-
templative rooster looking for clear weather, and '
asks whether he rightly understood the last remark of the honorable gentleman, and if so, would
like to inquire, kc, &c. It is j,uite au ordeal to
go through.
Orr is a man of the world, of pleasant social
feelings, and thus is enabled to put through the
pa.tizan Work he assumes more effectually than
person of more austerity and ostentation."
The Lynchburg, Va., Courier in noticing' the
arrival of Gen. Sam Houston, says he is six feet
four inches high, large in proportion, and as
straight as an Indian. He has but little hair "on
the top of his head," aud what he has has been
silvered by the touch of time—as has also the
large moustache which dignifies bis upper lip.
He wears a vest made of some kind of animal',-
skin (wild cat apparently)—has his pantaloons
stuffed iu the legs of his boots, and altogether
presents quite a backwoods and dilapidated appearance—at least so far as his dress is concerned,
Hon. N. P. Banks, Governor elect, has resigned
llis office as Representative in Congress, and his
resignation has been transmitted to the Governor.
Probably Governor Gardner will immediately is.
sue his proclamation, ordering an election, and it
will occur about the 8th of January.
The Boston Transcript, ofthe 18th inst, says:
Colonel and Mrs. Fremont left Boston yesterday.

onr public institutions and enjoying the hospitalities of their friends. They were welcome guests

The wife of Senator Benites, of San Antonio.

has been confirmed by the Senate as Minister to

officer of the Southern Commercial Convention at
New Orleans.
Ex-President Pierce having been named for

No Sabbath.
In a "Prize Essay on the Sabbath," written by a
journeyman printer, in Scotland, there occurs the
following passage:—
Yoke fellow I think how the abstraction of the
Sabbath would hopelessly enslave the working
classes with whom ye are identified. Think ol labor
going on in one monotonous aud continuous and
eternal cycle—limbs for ever on the rack, the fin go is
forever playing, the eyeballs forever straining, the
brow forever sweating, the feet forever plo-Uiing,
the brain forever throbbing, the shoulders forever
drooping, the loins forever aching, and the restless
mind forever scheming.
"Think of the beauty it would efface, ofthe mer-
ry-heartedness it would extinguish, of the giant
strength it would tame ; of the resources of nature
that it would exhaust, of the aspirations it would
crush; of the sickness it would breed; of the projects it would wreck; of the groans it would extort;
of the lives it would immolate; and the cheerless
graves it would prematurely dig! See them toiling
and moiling, sweating and fretting, grinding and
hewing, weaving and spinning, sowing and gather
ing, mowing and reaping, raxing and building, dig.
ging and planting, unloading aud storing, striving
and struggling—in the garden and in the field, in
the granary and in the mill, in the warehouse and
in the shop, on the mountains and in the ditch, on
the roadside and in the woods, in the city and in
the country, on the sea and on the shore, on the
earth, in the days of brightness ami gloom. What
a sad picture the world would present if wc had no
Sabbath."
The New York Evening Post gives the lollowing sketch of Col. Orr, the new Speaker of the
House oi Representatives :—
■Colonel Orr, who has just beer, elected Speaker
of the House of Representatives, like his able and
accomplished predecessor, Mr, Banks, started from
humble life, being the son ot South Corolina clock
peddler, He is somewhat unpopular with the file
eating exclusives of the South, as well from his
Union-saving principles as from what tbey con-
aider hia plebeian origin and association-. He
stands rather apart from the rest ot the South
Carolina delegation, and has exhibited a greater
inclination than they to ptess the claims ol that
State iu the distributed of federal patronage—
and he has certainly done something to commend
himself to a fair share of tbe spoils. Six thousand
dollars a year in Uncle Sam's gold—the Speaker's
salary—is not bad to take by anybody just now.
We doubt even if the "fusiest" families iu Virginia would reiuse ii, judging from tbe alacrity
with which their representatives have stepped into
ihe 1.B8 remunerative offices in the gift ot the
House,
The Dew Speaker has served already three terms
in the House, and has been diligently employing

High Time to Study Politics.— Bonaparte once,
at a party, placed himself directly before a beautiful and witty lady, and said very abruptly—
"Madam, I don't like that women should meddle
wiih politic.."
| ''You are very right, General," she replied, "but
he hol'ds. As chairman oi the committee relating in a country where women are beheaded, it ia natu-
to the subject, he signalized himsell by his report, [ ral that they should desire to know the reason."
Lucknow was safe. The divisions under Outf-
ram and Havelock were both in the Residency.
The enemy were said to be iu great force in the'
vicinity, and,Very strong in artillery. A convoy
of provisions had arrived safely at"Lucknow shortly after its relief, and reinforcements of 2000 men,-
t was supposed, would reach them Ircm Cawnpore
about the 2-ltb October. A column of MOO men,
under Geu. Greathend, was also ou its way tc
Lucknow, and was expected to arrive about tho
50th October, when the British force there would'
number 7000 men.
Greathead's column defeated a large body o^1
Delhi fugitives, with heavy loss-to-the latter, at-
Bdiundshtihur. on the 4th of October ;: on the
same day they also stormed and destroyed the'
fort of Malaghur, which the enemy had seized;:
and ou the 5th inst. they had another successful1
engagement with fugitives at Allygbur, iu which
400 of the enemy were cut up.
The column then proceeded to Agra and reached
that place ou the 14th of October, wheu it was attacked by a large body of mutineers, who were repulsed with, immense slaughter, the loss of all
their guns, 415 in number, five' lacs of bullion and'
a large amount of treasure. The number of mutineers killed is stated at 1,000, while the British
loss was small.
Colonel .Vilson had attacked and defeated the'
rebels at Bithoor, driving them out of a strong,
position.
The King of Delhi was to be tried by a military'
commission. Two more of his sons had been1
takeu and shot.
Reports were rife of threatening disturbances at
Hyderabad.
Nena Sahib was said to be near Bithoor again..
Maun Singh, heretofore a friend oi the British,
had turned against them since tbe storming of
Delhi was announced.
The fall of Delhi had- a marked effect in Mecrut-
and contiguous districts.
Arrears of revenue were beingbroughtinrapid--
ly, and loyalty was the order of the day in the"
northwestern provinces;
Part of a Bombay icginrent has mutinied at
Deesa.
A great depot of Europeans was to be formed at
Barrack pore.
Tlie Madras Presidency, Scinde, and tile Ni-
zaoj's dominions remained tranquil.
The Europeans at Saugor, above a thousand iu
number, were still in the fort, and calling urgent--
ly for relief. Fears were entertained for their'
safety.
Fart of the 32d Bengal Infantry had mntiniedf
at Deogliur, and two regiments of tbe Kotah Con-
ingent had also mutinied and murdered the political agent.
Eighteen men of the Bombay grenadiers were'
exeeuted at Ahmcdabad for plotting an insurrection.
STATE 01-" AFFAIRS tt Xt-fl CITY OF DELHI.
The city continues empty of all its former inhabitants, though many are attempting to nego-
iate with the prize agents for the ransom of their
houses and property. 11 is supposed a large
tmount of prize money will be collected. Nothing as yet is known as lo whether this place is ta
De retained as a garrison or not. The country is
about seltling down, and the people becoming
wonderfully civil.
CONDITION Olf LUCKNOW.
We must now turn to Lucknow. The position!
of tbe British cmnmander is singular. Between
the 20th aud 25th of September, General Have-*
lock had marched from Cawnpore to Lucknow"
with a force numbering less thau 2,800 men. The
lighting during the march was not considerable,
considering the number of the enemy and the
weakness of our force. The mutineer, however,
had thrown up works at u place called Allumbah,
three miles short ol Lucknow. These were mounU
ed with filly guns, and were taken after a stub-
born resistance by Gaperal Havelock, Finding
tbe place of sufficient strength, the General left a
party of the (i-lth in it, with the sick s.nd wounded,
and'himself pushed on to Lucknow, A plain,
traversed by a small canal, sepaiutes Lucknow
from Allumbagh, and as Havelock crossed the
bridge over the canal, it was broken down behind,
him by the enemy, who hung upon hjs r>-ar. Then
followed tlie attack on Lucknow. which was partially laken, with a loss on our side of about BiM
hundred killed and woundub The Residency was
relieved, and Gen. Havelock established himself
thore. The follows the strange party ofthe story*
The rebels have placed themselves tm the plain,
between the main body ol ihe British and the
party oi the (i4th, which holds Allntnhagh. The
whole extent of country between Cawnpore and
Allumbagh is clear, and a quantity of provisions,
convoyed by only two hundred and lifty men, has
got in with perfect safety ; but to Lucknow itself
it waa impossible to penetrate. The commander
must therefore mainlain himself as best he can until Colonel Greuthead makes his appearance, or
reinforcements are sent, up from Calcutta to enable him to act on the offensive.
BRITISH PLANS OF VENGEANCE.
At present public opinion is concentrated on the
question of vengeance. The following sentences,
from the Friend of India, arc understood to represent the universal idea;
1, That, in districts under martial law, and during actual wailare, the loss of life and property
should be regulated by military necessity alone,
'I. That every mutineer who has taken up arms
or quitted his ranks should die.
„. That every rebel who lias taken up arms
should die.
4. That in every village where an European has
been murdered, a telegraph cut, or a d.ik (stolen, a
.wilt tribunal shomd exercise summary justice.
5. That every village in which an European fugitive has been insulted or reiuaed aid should bf
i heavily fmed.
